How do you shave your balls for surgery?

You may lather the scrotum with soap and water and shave with a disposable blade razor. DO NOT USE AN ELECTRIC RAZOR OR DEPILATORY HAIR CREAMS. After shaving the area, shower or bathe to remove all loose hairs. If needed, wash the area again just before coming in for your vasectomy.

No-Needle No-Scalpel Vasectomy

Post-Operative Instructions

Diet

You may return to your normal diet as soon as you arrive home.

Activity

Your physical activity should be restricted the first seventy-two hours. During this time period you should remain relatively inactive, moving about only when necessary. After the first three post operative days you may return to work but should avoid heavy lifting (anything greater than thirty 20 pounds) and also avoid strenuous exercise. Ask us specifically about your restrictions both for home and work. If needed, we will be happy to write your employer a note. You should plan to wear a tight pair of jockey brief/boxer brief or an athletic supporter for the first several days, even while sleeping. This keeps the scrotum immobilized and helps prevent swelling. Ice packs should be placed on top of your underwear and not in direct contact with your scrotum. Using ice or frozen peas in a zip-lock bag works best and is a good pain reliever as well as helping to reduce any swelling. Ice should be used whenever possible for the first two days. (Note: Commercial freezing products such as 'Blue Ice' or similar are NOT to be used on the skin. These products are much colder than ice and can cause skin damage.) It is recommended that you wait at least 5-7 days before resuming sexual activities. You may resume intercourse then if you are not having discomfort. Having ejaculations too soon after a vasectomy may increase the chance of post procedure issues.

Wound

Some bruising or minor oozing from the skin opening, swelling, or mild tenderness of the scrotum are not unusual. It is also not unusual to see occasional blood staining in the semen with the first several ejaculations following a vasectomy.

Sutures

In most cases the skin opening will not require closing. The small puncture site will heal spontaneously in 3 or 4 days. You will be asked to bring in your post operative semen sample approximately 12 weeks after your vasectomy. It is important that you continue to use some other form of birth control until you have had semen sample examined and found to be free of sperm.

What do gynecologists think about pubic hair?

They know that hair growth is natural and normal. It doesn't hinder their ability to do their job, and it doesn't harm your health. Your gynecologist may be looking at as many as 20 different vaginas a day. When it comes to pubic hair, they have seen it all.

whmcenter.com - Do I Need to Get Rid of Pubic Hair Before My Pelvic Exam?

Pubic hair is natural. You have it for a reason. Actually, you have it for several reasons. It provides warmth and helps keep dirt and insects from finding their way into intimate areas. It also helps with a process called pheromone trapping. Pheromones are the scent that attracts a mate for reproduction. It all sounds very primal, but it’s a normal part of being a living thing on planet Earth. Today, these benefits are less of a concern. We don’t have the same bug-related problems, and we tend to live in cleaner environments with better personal hygiene. Since it’s not a big deal anymore, some women choose to remove their pubic hair. There’s still some risk involved because shaving and waxing can cause abrasions, burns, infections, or the occasional ingrown hair. However, they are usually minor issues that can be managed without a doctor.

What Will My OB/GYN Think?

An OB/GYN’s job involves inspecting places that are private. Some women feel pressure to ensure that everything is perfect before they go. The truth is that your doctor and their staff do not care if you are clean-shaven or not. They are medical professionals. They know that hair growth is natural and normal. It doesn’t hinder their ability to do their job, and it doesn’t harm your health. Your gynecologist may be looking at as many as 20 different vaginas a day. When it comes to pubic hair, they have seen it all. If you are due for a pelvic exam, contact us for an appointment. We promise we don’t mind how much or how little pubic hair you have when you come in.
